In this lecture and hands-on presentation, explore Illinois' fascinating archaeological record that spans some 13,000 years!
Illinois has a rich and varied archaeological record that spans some 13,000 years. In this two-part presentation, we will first explore this record in lecture format, then interact with hands-on stations that include different archaeological materials from the Land of Lincoln. After experiencing “Diggin’ Illinois,” participants will foster a better appreciation for our state’s cultural history, in addition to the materials archaeologists find during excavation. Altogether, this presentation will help celebrate Illinois’ past, the present, and the future.
Dale F. Simpson Jr. (Ph.D., RPA) is a Senior Scientific Specialist with the Illinois State Archaeological Survey and an adjunct instructor for College of DuPage. He serves as a Board Member for the Chicago Archaeological Society and the Illinois Association for Advancement of Archaeology. He is the editor of Illinois Antiquity and author of numerous books and articles regarding Pacific anthropology, Rapa Nui (Easter Island), and Illinois archaeology.
